trips to DC



Here are some of our pictures from our first sight-seeing trip to "the district" as we (we being everyone around here) call it.





Here is the Washington Monument. We weren't able to go up to the top because all the tickets had already been taken when we showed up at 10:00am. Darn tourists. Another day perhaps.








Here George W. needed to go to Starbucks or something. Marine One is landing at the White House. We were too far away to actually see Mr. President.









This is the Lincoln Memorial. He actually is inside you just can't see it from here.














Here is Cassie at "The Wall". The Veitnam veterans memorial. There are a lot of names on that wall.














Another view of George W's humble abode. If you want to go on a tour when you come visit you need to contact your congressman at least 3 months in advance. That is the only way to get tours now.











That us at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave. They actually hosted the Little League world series on that same lawn two weeks after we took this picture. How fun would that be.










Stay tuned for more from almost DC.
